What’s the issue? I installed mint because I know fuckall about Linux, and tbh it’s a dice toss if I have used the Flatpak option not knowing what the actual difference between them are

The white chair is TripTrap made by Stokke (At least the original design, guess it’s been pirated by other makers) This could have been any Nordic country as well apart from the details ofc :) I blame IKEA for that

So the Norwegian Forest Cat is sitting on the Norwegian children chair :)

Edit. Think it might be a siberian actually…

Norwegian here. Not that often I think of India tbh, but here is a short bullet point list

• Massive overpopulation
• Rich and dirt poor at the same time
• Castes
• Politically governed by nationalists
• Rape stories
• Massive market thats the only reason we care about India
• Good tech industry (moon landing?)
• Don’t go to Kashmir
• Holi
• Bollywood
• “Indian” food (know that some protein in some sauce with nan and rice is not all an entire subcontinent can offer)

Last show I saw about India was that James May show on Amazon

I am from Norway so…no. Just to make the point even more clear. That pink line up north. It’s mostly for shipping iron ore from Kiruna to the port in Narvik. It can take passengers but it’s not its main purpose. And the rest of the Norwegian rail system stops in Bodø. So from Narvik to Bodø you need a six hour+ bus drive. (This is an map of the EU system I think so Norway and the UK are left out)

I guess the size has something to do with the size of Japanese roads and back alley space?

No. But she loved the the reply :)

I installed Linux on my gfs (now wife) old laptop years ago when the beginner distros was way less user friendly. When I asked on a forum for help it was just the sound of crickets. When she made her first post starting with “my boyfriend installed Linux and I don’t understand how to…” They fucking fell out trees to answer her questions

Not sure if I am missing your joke here, but British humour can pretty vicious at times. This is perhaps one of the mildest examples I have seen

There is also the fact that thousands of Norwegians served in Lebanon for 20 years and witnessed IDF first hand. They took their stories home with them. I served in Kosovo and most of my colleagues had spent years in Lebanon. One time a very Christian solider watching the news in a joint TV room comments loudly and negativeo on palestinians in a news story and it almost came to blows. No one liked Hezbollah, but many hated the IDF. I heard the story of the Qana massacre from a Norwegian patrol that was present (the wiki article dosent mention them.) To hear the story how they had to shut the shelter door on civilians as there was no more room is enough to break your heart.

Fuck IDF it took them less than 80 years to turn in to the SS

Multiplay.co.uk stopped offering servers, and Discord was all new, bright and shiny so we switched to Disc. Was sad to see it go tbh

There is a windows software for Netflix? I have been using my browser on all platforms tbh

Specialized from that era are great. Still have my Rock Hopper from 2002. Replaced the front shock absorber with a fixed fork (no idea what the English word is) and some ball bearings here and there. Love it

Japanese martial arts practitioners can spend years achieving that state. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mushin_(mental_state)

Pocket Cast is still decent. But they increased the sub prices a lot recently. I was still on an old plan, so I don’t know what I’ll do when it expires. What bugs me more is podcast releasing exclusively on certain platforms. Congratulations, you just reinvented radio

I live in Norway which has become a mature EV market thanks to subsidies. The things that come out of china these days compared with the catchup from established EU/Japanese brands might also have something to do with it. China is subsidizing it’s auto industry pretty hard, and they do make decent cars.

The Amazon show does not do it justice on my opinion, but it has been explained with how it’s another turn of the wheel and a “what if”

Not american so I don’t really know, but it’s probably a central archive facility for the entire nation. Guessing a passport is a federal document so it makes sense that the document handling is centralized

The tax will just be the cost of doing business. But surely “tHe MarKeT” will correct this by finding cheaper non carbon transport sell a cheaper product.

Personally I support tax of fossile and subsidization of alternatives. Worked like a charm to electrify Norways car park.

The cons are however that increased demand for electricity means building wind, hydro, solar power, with a huge cost to local environent both in most land and the diesel used by construction euipment

It’s how you tax. Some Norwegians left because not the income but the fortune was taxed. And by fortune also the value of stocks and such. The issue for some was they needed to sell off stocks to pay the tax. Also Norway established a new tax that tax the fortune if you leave. I am ALL for taxing the wealthy, but if the money has already been taxed…
